Hydraulic backstay
- To hoist a crew member up to the top of the mast, make a bowline with the
halyard directly on the bosun's chair ring (never use the halyard snap shackle
or shackle).
- Never hoist a crew member when sailing in heavy weather.
ADVICE-RECOMMENDATION
- The initial commissioning of your boat will require a lot of skill and care. The proper
working of all your boat's equipment is the result of the quality of the commissioning
operations.
For this reason the stepping of the mast must be carried out under the responsibility of your
dealer the first time the mast is stepped.
- Before each trip, carefully inspect the mast from top to bottom.
- Periodically check the rig tension and the tightness of the locknuts and bottle screw clevis
pins.
